Crossover caps

I'm getting ready to have the capacitors in my Yamaha NS-1000M's replaced and upgraded. In speaking with 2 different sellers of capacitors the suggestion has been to use good caps in the mid and tweeter path particularly, but to use one very good cap paired up with the others so that the quality of the better cap will be picked up.

The recommendation for the mid is to use a 20uf cap of good quality and a 1uf cap of excellent quality to arrive at the necessary 21uf value required. This I'm told will realize the sound quality of the higher price cap while keeping the costs down.

Thoughts?
